July 2009 Garden Meeting, Garden Names
Members met out at the garden on June 24 to kibbitz, compare notes, and talk about garden matters. Among our accomplishments, we narrowed down the list of possible garden names and decided to request votes by July 10. We also set garden workdays for July and a July meeting date. Read on for the straight dope:
Voting On A Garden Name
The group narrowed down the list of names to four possible choices that most people were amenable to. Those names are:
- Horse & Goose Community Garden
- Community Garden At Upper Dummerston Road
- Green Meadows Community Garden
- Green Goose Community Garden
Workdays and Meetings
The group also decided on dates for next work days and garden meeting.
July 8, 2009 – 9-11 AM – Workday
July 12, 2009 - 1-3 PM – Workday
July 22, 2009 – 5:30 PM Meet and Greet, 6:00 PM Meeting
According to Dora, the biggest maintenance issue right now is grass which is growing everywhere with great vigor. There will be need of weeding in the perennial plot. And Carole wants to put in a cutting garden in Plot 1 by the water barrels so she’ll need help clearing that bed. (Carole rec’d a plant donation from Walker Farm on behalf of the garden.)
